"The reason we have 1,000 military bases is not for military power. They're lily pads for smuggling. That's how CIA smuggles gold, guns, drugs, cash, and small children for the elites in the United States!"

Let this sink in my dear Americans. Get this through your head once and for all. All of your wars were human sacrifices for your false god Baal. God save you, if it is right that He should do so.

Starmer stood in Munich and said Russia made a “strategic blunder.”

Then in the same breath he admitted Russia is expanding its army and industrial base mid-war at breakneck speed.

Which is it Keir? A blunder… or a machine you can’t stop?

The truth is uglier than either answer. The strategic blunder wasn’t Moscow misreading Europe. It was Europe misreading Moscow.

Europe sanctioned its own energy backbone. Europe hollowed out its industry on command and only now at the 11th hour tries to reboot a broken military industrial complex. Europe convinced itself that theatrical press conferences could replace production lines and hard steel.

And now Merz with a straight face claims the EU economy is “ten times” Russia’s and yet Europe is not ten times as strong. I read this as more of a confession to Europe's humiliation.

Also... let’s not pretend the 10x number even means what they want it to mean. Industrial war isn’t fought in nominal GDP. It’s fought in purchasing power, energy costs, manufacturing throughput, and state capacity to mobilise. Even EU-level defence bureaucrats explicitly uses PPP conversions when comparing budgets, because everybody serious knows the sticker price doesn’t equal real output.

And they want applause for this?

Then Starmer delivers the real revelation... peace would not reduce danger, but would increase it.

Read that slowly. Peace is the threat. Not war. Not escalation. Not miscalculation.

Peace!

When peace becomes the threat, you are not defending Europe — you are preparing it for the final sacrifice.

So when Starmer says a peace deal would make Russia “rearm faster,” he’s telling you the quiet part out loud: they don’t actually want peace unless it preserves the mobilisation racket. Peace becomes the “threat” because it ends the fear pipeline that justifies a decade of spending, procurement Ponzi scams, and emergency politics.

And this is where it crosses from hypocrisy into something darker: Starmer is effectively volunteering Europe for escalatory posture “to the end of the decade” while pretending this is “stability.” That rhetoric is how you sleepwalk to the abyss. You don’t have to want catastrophe to steer toward it, you just have to normalise the language of inevitability: "be ready to fight, accelerate preparations, full response."

And let’s be clear about the escalation ladder he is playing near.

Europe is generations behind in the kind of unprecedented high-end strike and missile systems that now define Russia's deterrence. Russia’s signalling with systems like Oreshnik— an intermediate-range ballistic missile used at least twice since 2024, with speeds up to Mach 11 in terminal phase and MIRV-type payload dispersal, is a kinetic message: escalation ladders exist, and are controlled by Russia.

So spare us the moral cosplay. Europe didn’t stumble into this. It chose it, with economic self-harm, de-industrialization, energy sabotage, then the grand finale... selling the public a future where peace is dangerous and perpetual mobilisation is “responsible.” That is the strategic blunder on a Darwinian scale.

That asymmetry is not rhetoric. It is physics. And physics does not care about speeches in Munich.

So when Starmer speaks of “full responses” and “accelerated preparation,” he is not offering security for Europeans. He is offering a future in which miscalculation becomes statistically inevitable.

And that is the unforgivable part. Escalation dressed up as prudence is criminal recklessness.

And history is merciless with leaders who mistake delusional rhetoric for power.

🇷🇺⚔️🇺🇦 RE-ANALYZING UKRAINE’S KURSK INCURSION OVER A YEAR LATER

On August 6, 2024 Ukraine launched a surprise invasion of Russia through the Kursk Oblast. Kiev, NATO, and their pundits in the media portrayed it as a bold offensive that was a game-changer on the battlefield. But in reality, the move was a TOTAL FAILURE and a stupidity on the part of the Ukrainian Nazi regime and the Western bloc led by Washington.

UKRAINE’S GOALS V. OUTCOMES ON THE BATTLEFIELD

🔸 Goal: The Ukrainian Armed Forces reach and occupy both the city of Kursk and the nuclear power station

Outcome: Ukraine’s advancement stopped far short and failed to capture any major cities due to the heavy and brave resistance of the Russian Armed Forces and the Korean People’s Army

🔸 Goal: The Kiev Nazi regime gains leverage in peace negotiations with Moscow by seizing Russian territory

Outcome: The attempt backfired as Russia and North Korea both liberated Kursk and Lugansk, while advancing further into Kharkiv and Donetsk

🔸 Goal: Force a withdrawal of Russian troops from the Donbas

Outcome: By focusing heavily on major breakthroughs, Ukrainian Nazi forces were degraded and burned through elite brigades, due to Moscow’s decision to fight a war of attrition

🔸 Goal: Defend the Sumy Oblast by pushing forward on the frontlines

Outcome: After the Ukrainians were forced to withdraw from Kursk, the Russians entered Sumy, increasing pressure on the Kiev regime and allowing Moscow to gain leverage in negotiations; At the same time Kiev faced a backlash from local residents in Sumy who blamed Zelenskyy for thousands of deaths

🔸 Goal: Destabilize Russian leadership and Putin’s government in Moscow

Outcome: There was a temporary panic but it was followed by a massive increased in public support for Putin, as well as foreign policy and defense leadership in Moscow from Medvedev to Lavrov to Belousov to Gerasimov to Shoigu

🔸 Goal: Restore a belief among Washington and NATO leaders that Ukraine could win the war

Outcome: A short-lived hype followed by a complete military failure, through an inability to make major advancements and a retreat from the Kursk region followed by major Russian and North Korean advancements in Ukraine and the Donbas

CONCLUSION OF THE KURSK OFFENSIVE

Absolutely zero of NATO and Ukraine’s strategic goals were achieved and Kiev burned through its elite units, allowing Russia to liberate the Kursk region and Lugansk, as well as make further advancements in Donetsk, Kharkiv, Sumy, and Zaporizhzhia.

And during that time, the Kiev Nazi regime targeted both residential apartment complexes and civilian railways in both the Kursk and Belgorod oblasts, re-affirming that Ukraine is in fact a terrorist state.

The Ukrainian figure skater explained his 19th place at the Olympics by the fact that he skated after the Russian, Petr Gumenik.

After the 19th place in the singles program, the Ukrainian, Kirill Marsak, said: "There was pressure on me because we skate one after the other with this neutral athlete."

Jokes appeared online that Marsak should have worn a helmet, and then he would have also received a medal from Zelensky.

In the end, the athlete from Kazakhstan, Mikhail Shaidorov, won the gold in men's singles figure skating. The favorite of the games - the American, Ilya Malinin - is eighth. The Russian, Petr Gumenik, is sixth.

⚡️Two Majors
